Is anyone successfully using hplip under CentOS? When I try to print on my HP Officejet J4580 I always get the error
Printer Filter "foomatic-rip-hplip" for printer "oj" not available: No such file or directory
What I find puzzling is that I have googled for this, and it appears there has been the same problem with hplip for over a year.
Wow, that's pretty old. I think rpmforge has newer, but regardless, I wound up installing from source. The hplip page for CentOS is a bit off (dated, I imagine), I have my own page on it here. (I should add that it works quite well for me, version 3.9.8 or so. Haven't checked for updates since then, as this does all I need.
